The flag of the city of Nantes is a white flag with a central white cross with the coat of arms of the Nantes country in the canton.

It is the historical symbol of the city of Nantes, former historic capital of Brittany, a city considered as a European metropolis that shines throughout the great west (of France (Pays-de-la-Loire, Brittany, Poitou-Charentes). Nantes is located in the west of France on the Loire River some 50 km from the Atlantic coast and south of the Armorican Massif. It is the 6th most populated city in France.

The coat of arms of the city of Nantes is emblazoned in this way: "Gules (red) with a golden nave (yellow ship) dressed in ermine (black speckled), on a sea of Vert (green), on the ermine chief (upper part with black ermine field on white background)".

Ermine flecks are a traditional Breton heraldic motif derived from the real fur of ermine, the tail tips that were sewn onto clothing. This motif can be found on the very famous Breton flag as well as many other coats of arms and flags of Brittany.

The ship shown here refers to the commercial port of Nantes, a platform for trade and maritime commerce since time immemorial.

The green sea symbolizes the Atlantic Ocean and the city's strategic position on the banks of the Loire.

The cross on the flag is white with a black border and it is in fact a kind of synthesis between the traditional white French crosses and the black Brittany crosses.

The flag of Nantes is associated with the city's historical coat of arms and the city's official motto, the Latin motto "Favet Neptunus Eunti", which means "Neptune favours those who dare", a motto associated with maritime life in Nantes.
